Oxygen Therapy involves participating in physical activity while breathing 85% oxygen, compared to the 21% concentration of oxygen we normally breathe. Having a higher distribution of pure oxygen in the body has many benefits, including an increase in energy, better circulation, improved recovery, a decrease in inflammation, a boosted immune system, increased metabolism, and improved brain function, mood, and athletic stamina. Most often, our patients use this method when recovering from illness or surgery. However, most of our patients utilize the oxygen-restricted setting for athletic or altitude training and athletic feats (e.g., hiking in high altitudes).

Breathe It In
You might be thinking, don’t I always exercise with oxygen? But you have never experienced this level of it. You will wonder how you lived without it, especially if you ever want to train for a marathon, climb a mountain, or travel to altitude. It is also for folks who want to avoid altitude sickness or getting short of breath walking to the mailbox. Oxygen Therapy is an exercise method where the patient breathes in high levels of oxygen-rich air while doing cardiovascular exercise. This level of nearly pure oxygen fuels your muscles to increase athletic performance. It is also responsible for an increase in energy and a decrease in inflammation. That makes it a useful tool for those with chronic conditions.
- Decreased inflammation
- Increased energy
- Improved athletic performance
- Improved stamina in oxygen-rich or oxygen-poor areas
- Helps with anxiety and mental focus

Frequently Asked Questions
The most popular use of this oxygen therapy is for altitude training. A special setting allows users to exercise with less oxygen, simulating a 10,000-foot altitude. In as little as 6-8 sessions, users can travel to altitude to ski, backpack, climb, or hunt and be ready to go on day one! It also helps athletes accomplish “live low, train high” training.
Patients with respiratory illnesses like COPD are often unable to exercise without losing their breath. Oxygen Therapy in Charleston is a way for respiratory patients to reap the benefits of exercise without putting added stress on their lungs and heart. We recommend consulting with your pulmonologist or cardiologist to ensure every member of your treatment team is on board.
